About Us

Open Door is a charitable trust founded in 1984 and although based in Bray our catchment area covers North Wicklow and South County Dublin. Open Door is run by a Board of Trustees on a non-denominational basis.  The Trust ensures that Open Door Day Centre is run in an open and transparent manner.  Rudy Montejo, Manager, and Suzanne Cox, Development Officer, are available to reassure supporters with any queries on funding or allocation of funds. 

Open Door Day Centre operates on a daily basis, Monday to Friday. We provide facilities and activities for adults with physical disabilities as a result of multiple sclerosis, stroke, motor neurone disease, spina bifida, road accidents and others. Our purpose built centre is designed to allow easy access to the various activities within the building. Open Door provides members with a vital social outlet and also the opportunity to learn new skills in computers, art, woodwork, music and ceramics. Open Door Day Centre also provides carers and their families with a well deserved break during the week.

Open Door employs 11 staff who ensure that each member is cared for and assisted as and when necessary.
